From Exploring Kent's Past: "Beside an old trackway in a wood on the ridge of Three Barrow Down at a height of 325 ft O.D., there are three bowl barrows. 'A' is 26.0m in diameter and 3.5m in height with a large mutilation inthe top. No visible ditch. 'B' measures 14.0m in diameter and 1.0m in height. No visible ditch. 'C' measures 21.0m NW-SE by 16.0m transversely and 1.9m in height being mutilated on the SW by a track. There is no visible ditch. All are surmounted by trees and heavily overgrown, otherwise fair condition. " http://extranet7.kent.gov.uk/ExploringKentsPast/SingleResult.aspx?uid=MKE5768
